The Rainbow became an important meeting place for local non-profits and NGOs over 11 years ago when the Evening Lectures /NGO Talks first began. The idea of the lectures/talks is to be a link between the NGO and people interested in getting involved with the great projects that work towards making a better Guatemala.
Every talk we host increases a NGOs public exposure as well as the probability that someone attending may decide to volunteer, donate money or fundraise for the charity. Since hosting the first talk (Sue Patterson´s) we´ve had more than 50 local non-profits and NGO´s presenting!
A donation of Q25 is asked for to each person attending the talk, the donation given goes directly to the presenting NGO.
Manos Abiertas is an integrated women’s health clinic and natural birth center with two locations in Guatemala. We serve a population that otherwise would not have access to health services. Since opening our doors in 2008, we have served over 2,000 women, most of whom have become our regular clients. We provide full-scale gynecological and obstetric services, pediatric care, midwifery services, health promoter training, and education.
We believe that by improving the lives of individual women, we can help to create a healthier Guatemala.
